On March 16, 1968, Robert F. KENNEDY declared his candidacy for President of the United States in the U.S. Senate Caucus Room, the exact location where his late brother John F. KENNEDY had proclaimed his candidacy in 1960. Today, which marks 50 years to that day, Netflix announced that acclaimed director Dawn Porter's (Gideon's Army, Spies of Mississippi, Trapped) new original documentary series Bobby KENNEDY For President will launch globally on April 27, 2018.
With new interviews with RFK confidantes and staffers, including HARRY Belafonte, Rep. John Lewis, Rep. Neil Gallagher, Dolores Huerta, Ambassador William Vanden Heuvel, Paul Schrade, Franklin A. Thomas, William Arnone, Marian Wright Edelman and Peter Edelman -- Porter reveals anew what America gained and what it lost in the life, vision, politics, and enduring legacy of Bobby Kennedy.
